Photography is the process of recording light or electromagnetic radiation to create durable images. It began in the late 19th century and was initially viewed as a technical process rather than an art form. When a photographer focuses a camera on a subject and captures an important moment, it becomes a work of art through its use of elements like form, color, light, and composition. Photography is also a powerful means of communication used in fields like journalism to convey information and ideas. Key characteristics include immediacy and detail. Notable Filipino photographers include George Tapan, John K. Chua, and Manny Librodo.

PHOTOGRAPHY is the science, art, and practice of creating durable images by recording light or other

electromagnetic radiation, either electronically by means of an image sensor, or chemically by means of


a light-sensitive material such as photographic film. Photography was viewed as a purely technical
process that records visible images by light action on light-sensitive materials. The word photography
comes from two Greek words “photos” meaning light and “graphos” meaning writing. It was started in
the late 19th century, and from then it was not immediately considered as art.
The Photographer as artist:
The photographer focuses the camera at a subject and clicks the shutter to make the photography as a
process. Once the artist discerns an important moment, and focuses his camera on it, and click the
shutter it becomes an art in photography. The photographer has captured the element of arts like form,
color, light, shadow, texture, and composition to create a true work of art.
Photography as Communication:
Photography is considered as one of the most powerful means of communication. Photographic image is
today’s most important means of conveying information and ideas and expressing emotions.
Two typical characteristics of Photography
1. Immediacy- is seen in ‘true to life” and ‘of the moment’.
2. Detail- the camera takes in every detail of an image.
➢ Photographs are vital tools in communication fields such as journalism, advertising,
education, and even in courts of law.
